Reaching - Poem by Vanessa Brown

Every human heart desires to reach; Reach with words, find a bond, That will let them look out of the windowAt the sun - from the cell of their mind.

But there is no door, no-one may fully enter.Is there any truth or sincerity in words? Or are they merely a desperate plea, For a break through from banality?

Maybe words can say nothing; But we are never alone.A smile that sends a thousand rays; Only that can show true joy, And an infectious smile will draw everyone in -Smash the window and break down the door.

And though you may walk in silent lands, Where only your thoughts can dwell -He is with you, and will walk by your sideThrough your mind's path: All you have to do is believe.
